Normally when you create a Data view web part of a list it will just display
the items from that list. There are some situations you need to add

- First of all you have to open your web application in share point
designer. Open the page where you want to insert data view

- Click on Insert --> Share point Control --> Data view

- From the Data source library select the list you want to add to data
view web part and click on Show data

- Select the fields you want to insert to Data View

- Select on the Title field you will get the drop down as shown below

- From the Format as drop down select Hyperlink
- Click ok you will be prompted with below popup

display from till id= as shown below

- Then click on the button marked RED

- Select ID from the next pop up as shown above
- Click OK. Save the changes and Check in the page
- You have done .Now go to the page where you inserted data view
webpart.
